Introduction

Bolageriet is Sweden's most modern and personalized accounting service, dedicated to making life easier for business owners. By offering an all-in-one online accounting solution, Bolageriet eliminates administrative tasks so businesses can focus on what they do best. From invoicing to final tax returns, their user-friendly system handles everything seamlessly, ensuring simplicity, freedom, and security for users. With a strong commitment to personal customer support and innovative solutions, Bolageriet sought a tool to tackle growing technical challenges in their development process.

Challenges

As Bolageriet embarked on a project to integrate external APIs for importing accounting data, the complexity of workflows and technical requirements quickly escalated. Key challenges included:

• Complexity and Lack of Clarity: The integration process demanded detailed mapping and documentation of workflows, which became increasingly difficult to manage.
• Communication Gaps: Aligning with end-users to understand their requirements was challenging, leading to miscommunications and delays.
• Development Inefficiencies: New requirements surfaced mid-development, necessitating rework. Debugging and error resolution were time-intensive, often taking up to two days.
• Documentation Overload: Existing tools, such as Figma and Word documents, were cumbersome to maintain and failed to provide a cohesive technical overview.

The team needed a robust solution to streamline processes, enhance communication, and minimize rework.

Solution

Bolageriet chose the Qlerify platform, a powerful B2B SaaS platform, to overcome their challenges. Qlerify provided a streamlined and visual approach to managing technical workflows and system architecture.

Why Qlerify?

Bolageriet previously used Figma for flowcharts and Word documents for detailed requirements. However, these tools posed several limitations, such as the need to maintain several versions of Figma sketches and slow and cumbersome updates to system documentation. Qlerify stood out for its unique capabilities:

• Dynamic Flow Management: The ability to move events within workflows and automatically update all associated artifacts eliminated manual effort and ensured accuracy.
• Iterative Updates: Updating and maintaining documentation became much faster and simpler, avoiding the versioning issues seen with Figma.
• Granular Detailing: Qlerify’s card-based structure allowed for the right level of detail, eliminating the need for separate text documents.
• Visual Clarity: The tool’s intuitive visual models made it easier for developers to understand dependencies and communicate effectively with non-technical stakeholders.
• AI Assistance: AI-generation of content accelerated the onboarding process and made system navigation intuitive.

Implementation

Getting started with Qlerify was quick and seamless. A brief 10-minute demo was sufficient for Bolageriet’s team to familiarize themselves with the tool. AI features within the Qlerify platform further simplified the onboarding experience. Bolageriet used Qlerify to create structured flowcharts, gather requirements, and design system architecture. Its swimlanes and subprocess features allowed the team to logically divide workflows, further enhancing clarity.

"The visual flowcharts in the Qlerify platform made it incredibly easy to explain and validate technical solutions with both developers and non-technical stakeholders. With Qlerify, we got a productivity booster that helps us streamline workflows, reduce bugs, and deliver solutions faster”

Amilia Waloh, Project Manager & Lead Developer

Results

The implementation of Qlerify delivered significant results:

1. Improved Collaboration: Communication with end-users and developers became more effective, reducing misunderstandings and aligning technical solutions with user needs.
2. Faster Debugging: Debugging time decreased dramatically, from 1-2 days to just 1-2 hours, thanks to better control over system dependencies.
3. Reduced Rework: The structured overview minimized rework by ensuring that all system dependencies were identified early.
4. Time Savings: Developers and stakeholders saved at least 50% of the time previously spent explaining and understanding the system structure.
5. Bug Reduction: A clear technical overview reduced the occurrence of bugs, leading to higher-quality solutions.

Value

Qlerify’s intuitive design and innovative features transformed Bolageriet’s development processes. Key highlights include:

• Ease of Use: The tool’s straightforward interface enabled quick adoption without extensive training.
• Efficiency Gains: Efficient updates to workflows and dependencies saved countless hours.
• Enhanced Scalability: By creating a clear system overview, Bolageriet positioned itself for future growth with reduced risks and streamlined processes.

Conclusion

Bolageriet successfully addressed its technical and operational challenges with Qlerify. The platform’s ability to provide clarity, reduce risks, and save time proved invaluable in a fast-paced development environment. By simplifying workflows and enhancing communication, Qlerify has become an integral part of Bolageriet’s operations.
